Hobart: The Big Bash League (BBL) champions Hobart Hurricanes have signed Australia all-rounder Beau Webster on a three-year deal. The Tasmanian native, who played for the Hurricanes in the 2016-17 season, returns to his hometown club this offseason after making his Test debut for Australia against India.
Coming off one of the best all-round cricket seasons in recent history for the Tasmanian Tigers, Webster will be looking to continue that form in the Big Bash for the Hurricanes after playing for the Melbourne Renegades and Melbourne Stars over the past eight seasons.
“I am pumped to return to Hobart next summer for the BBL and get the opportunity to play on a packed Ninja Stadium in front of our fans, my friends and family. Vaughany and Nelly have got the group playing a really good brand of cricket, and to see them win a championship makes me hungry to bring another one to ‘Canes fans next season!,” said Webster in a statement.
